Early morning errands and audits

I got up fairly early today.  I wanted to take my car in to the GMC dealership to get the oil changed and have everything checked out.  One good thing about being out and about early in the morning…not a lot of other people are!!  I got to the dealership and they were able to [...]

It’s heeeere…

Hmm…                   What could it be?                     Here’s a little hint for you…                       Have you figured it out yet?    

Spooky needs a kitten

Aww man, I shouldn’t get another cat, but I’m seeing all of these little kittens all over the place (yeah, thanks for that, Simone) and you know how cute and sweet little kittens are.  Then I try to tell myself it would be for Spook, because…well…she’s never been around another cat that actually liked her [...]

I may have ghosts in my house…

…seriously.  I go to work, come home and there are cabinet doors open.  The other day I came home and the closet door in my bedroom was standing wide open.  Another time the pantry door was open.  I guess I can’t really understand what these haunts are searching for and why do they have to [...]

RIP Goldi Girl

I had to have Goldi put to sleep this morning.  She hasn’t been well for the past couple of weeks, but during the past two days she had stopped eating and was drinking very little.  I knew, when she looked at me last night, she was asking me to let her go…that she had fought [...]

Another milestone…400 posts published

Actually I think today’s post puts it at 402…but really, who’s counting?  It’s been a very positive experience…I’ve made a lot of friends…I’ve learned a lot about writing and particularly my style of writing.  I’m so thankful for all of you who take the time out of your busy days to spend a few minutes [...]

I’m surprised, people are still in a cheerful mood

I say that because usually, by this time in the shopping season, people are starting to get desperate, stressed, and out of ideas.  So far, I’ve seen very little of that.  And I’m not complaining about that.  I hope it continues all the way through Christmas Eve.  I don’t really expect it to, but I [...]

Happy Halloween…want some candy?

Have you seen the little ghosts, goblins and assorted monsters running around the neighborhood tonight?  I’ve seen lots of those,  but I also saw some teenagers dressed up as, well, I don’t know what…maybe ladies of the evening would be the way to describe it.  Yikes.  My mom would never have allowed me out of the [...]

Digital scrapbooking…who knew?

As I mentioned the other day, I’ve kind of gotten into this whole digital scrapbooking, photo card thing in the past week or so… I mean, seriously, is this not just too cute?  This is what I’m using as my Halloween desktop wallpaper. This is the Christmas card I designed and ordered. This is the [...]

The long and winding road to fitness, day 119

A nice rainy day today.  I thought I’d go out and run a few errands, but when I got out there, I just wasn’t in the mood.  So I ended up stopping to get gas then ran into CVS for a couple of things (bought 2 Dawn dish soaps and 1 Natural Instincts, spent not [...]
